Owners Ask For Restaurant Variance Extensions

SANATOGA PA – Bella Italia Restaurant, the venue for pizza and Italian foods proposed to be located just west of the Rite-Aid Pharmacy at 2209 E. High St., Pottstown PA, has been scheduled for another hearing June 23 (2010; Wednesday) at 6 p.m. with the Lower Pottsgrove (PA) Township Zoning Hearing Board in the municipal building on Buchert Road, Sanatoga.

The site currently features rocks, stumps and open field. Work by owner Cilluffo Property Holdings LLC to clear the area was halted months ago by the township because its review and approvals process, of which zoning hearings are a part, was incomplete.

When the Bella Italia project first faced the hearing board last December, it received variances from the zoners to operate in what is a limited commercial and office district.

Those approvals, however, have only a limited life. Cilluffo is returning to the board to ask for an extension on the variance deadlines, according to an advertisement that appears this morning (Monday, June 7, 2010) in The (Pottstown PA) Mercury newspaper, the township’s publication of record for legal notices.

The public may attend and, if desired, comment during the hearing.
